Dapper Darwin: Baby monkey in sheepskin coat found outside Ikea store
The monkey, named Darwin, was seen wandering around the car park by bemused shoppers on Sunday afternoon. Darwin had escaped from his owner’s crate, and made it as far as the store doors before being captured by animal welfare officers.
As of today, the monkey was still trending on Twitter, and is now the subject of two parody accounts.
